His words were a bit high-sounding, but no one pointed it out. After all, he had to find a legitimate reason to give up Chang'an, otherwise there would be an extra psychological burden when everyone escaped.

Seeing that no one objected, Xiahou Ru asked one last time: "Do you guys still have any objections?"

Everyone was silent or shook their heads. Xiahou Ru said loudly: "Okay, this matter is settled. You all go back and prepare to leave the old, weak, sick, disabled, and young and strong at the top of the city to cover their eyes and ears. After the Yin hour, we will lead our elite troops to bring enough dry food to gather at the north gate. Let's take advantage of the most sleepy time of the Shu army in the early morning."

"Abide by the orders of the governor." Guo Huai and others accepted the order in unison.

In the second half of the night, at the end of Yin and early Mao, Xiahou Ru, Guo Huai, Yan Fei and others led three thousand elite troops to meet at the North Gate. The people in the city only thought it was a normal mobilization of troops and did not know that they were going to escape. Only a few powerful families knew the truth about the Central Plains.

However, Xiahou Ru had already sent someone to say hello to the big families. Not only did they not dare to reveal any news, but they also cooperated vigorously and wanted to send the plague gods away as soon as possible.

Xiahou Ru knew the virtues of these powerful surnames. Although he was extremely angry, he thought that he would rely on their fence-bearers to recover in the future. So he suppressed his anger and comforted him with kind words, saying some scenes that made them temporarily commit themselves to the thief, lie dormant, and wait for the opportunity to act as an insider when counterattacking.

Of course, he did not have any punishment methods. Before leaving, he forcibly took thousands of war horses from the major surnames, which made the evacuated three thousand Wei troops ride on war horses, greatly increasing the success rate of breaking through.

"Hmph, these fence-bearing grass only spit out this little blood, it's really cheap for them." Wang Duan remembered that when he went to collect war horses from major families just now, the sarcastic and reluctant faces of the big surnames could not help but complain.

Yan Fei, who was standing by, said, "Forget it, the king's army will have to rely on these people in the future to counterattack. We are inconvenient to offend too much."

"When I recovered Chang'an in the future, I want to see what their faces looked like?" Wang Duan was still angry.

Xiahou Ru rode his horse to the vicinity and happened to hear the two talking. He patted Wang Duan on the shoulder and sneered: "Hmph, I think their faces must be exactly the same as when we welcome Zhuge Liang into the city tomorrow."

Yan Fei and Wang Duan looked at each other, first shook their heads and smiled bitterly, and then praised in unison: "It's still the governor who can see it thoroughly."

"Oh." Xiahou Ru waved his hand with a wry smile, then said seriously: "Okay, let's not talk about this, the time is almost over, everyone is ready to break through."

After the fifth update, the sky was still dark, and the northern gate of Chang'an suddenly opened. Three thousand Wei soldiers were holding pieces, wrapped their horses, and quietly retreated out of the city. At this time, the Han army was still asleep until Xiahou Ru and others escaped to the edge of the battlefield and were discovered by the Han army's whistle cavalry.

"All the troops follow me!"

Having revealed his whereabouts, Xiahou Russo no longer cared about the sound and led his troops to rush towards the weakest northeast corner of the besieged.

Xiahou Ru personally led his personal guards to open the way in front, and two civil servants Yan Fei and Wang Duan were listed in the middle of the team, while Guo Huai led his troops to cut off the rear.

All the Wei soldiers knew that the opportunity was right in front of them, and they all rushed to fight bravely. The Han army was caught off guard and could not stop them, and they were actually broken by the Wei army. As soon as they escaped from the trap, Xiahou Ru led his men and horses to Fengyi and left.

When Zhao Yun learned that Xiahou Ru led a large Wei army to flee, he was surprised and personally lit hundreds of cavalry to pursue him, and sent someone to report to Zhuge Liang.

After Zhuge Liang learned about it, he was also surprised by Xiahou Ru's decisiveness, so he hurriedly called Jiang Wei and ordered him to lead his troops to chase him, so that he could capture and kill Xiahou Ru, Guo Huai and other generals.

"The generals were ordered to launch a fierce attack on Chang'an immediately after dawn. Since Xiahou Ru had fled, the Chang'an defenders must be left with only the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, and there was no combat power. I want the royal army to move into the city today."

Yang Yi bowed and replied, "As the Prime Minister's orders," he went to write a military order and issued a camp.

After dawn, the Han army besieged from all sides and the offensive was extremely fierce. The defenders in the city had already learned that the chief general Xiahou Ru had abandoned the city and fled, and had no intention of fighting. They either threw down their weapons, took off their military uniforms and hid them among the people, or took the initiative to surrender to the Han army. Some families even joined forces to open the city gate.

It took only half an hour for the Han army to capture Chang'an, Guan Xing, Wang Ping and others to drive in first, while eliminating the remaining enemies and bandits, while occupying the arsenal of the official office. When the situation in the city is initially stable, Zhuge Liang was invited to enter the city to calm the people.

Outside the east gate, Liu Yan, Guan Xing, Yuan Qian and others, as well as the powerful men and women in the city, thousands of scholars and people were standing by the road, looking forward to welcome Zhuge Liang to Chang'an.

Looking at the tall and majestic city walls of Chang'an, Zhuge Liang on the four-wheeled car was filled with mixed feelings, with tears in his eyes, and murmured to himself: "Last Emperor, have you seen it? Chang'an finally returned to the hands of the Han Dynasty. The three rises of the Han Dynasty are expected, and the three rises of the Han Dynasty are expected!"

Although Yang Yi on the right did not hear what Zhuge Liang was saying, he had already guessed the general idea through the other party's expression, so he approached and said, "Prime Minister, Chang'an has resumed, the primary goal of this Northern Expedition has been completed, and the subsequent wars will be much easier to fight. The people of Chang'an welcomed each other, which shows that people are thinking about the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty three times are just around the corner."

"The people have been poisoned by the pseudo-Wei for a long time, and it is real to welcome the king's army, but those powerful surnames Sibu Sihan can only say maybe." Zhuge Liang smiled slightly.

Before Yang Yi could answer, he continued, "It's getting late, don't let the people get frozen outside for a long time, and send them to speed up the entry of the army into the city."

"promise."

Yang Yi called the commander to continue and said, "Prime Minister, it is a blessing for the country to recover Chang'an. Let's go in like this? Have you left a few words so that future historians can write something?"

Zhuge Liang waved to the people beside the road and replied with a smile: "What words left? Chang'an has recovered, I am extremely happy, and I am already exhausted." He paused and pondered: "Let's do you think Wei Gong, Chang'an's recovery is due to the bloody battle of the soldiers of the three armies. You can call me the mighty of the Han army for me."

"Yes." Yang Yi nodded excitedly, cleared his throat, rode his horse forward, and shouted loudly: "The Prime Minister has a word, the Han army is mighty."

"The Han army is mighty, the Han army is mighty..." The soldiers were proud and said in unison.

Suddenly, someone called out the mighty prime minister, and everyone said in unison: "The prime minister is powerful, the prime minister is powerful..."

"Long live the great man!" Zhuge Liang didn't want to shout, but at this moment he was inspired by the cheers resounding across the sky, and he couldn't help but shouted out excitedly.

"Long live the great man, long live the great man..."

The guards around agreed in unison and sent them to the surroundings, and everyone responded. Zhuge Liang's car frame entered the east gate with cheers one after another. The people of Chang'an welcomed each other enthusiastically and rushed to see Zhuge Liang's appearance.

The Prime Minister's camp was located in the Yongliang Governor's Office in Cao Wei. After Zhuge Liang moved in, he immediately issued a notice to recruit soldiers and civilians.
